madara wins the war and everyone is in the eternal tsukuyomi. 

he, however, as the caster is slightly aware everything is a dream and for him it is the sweetest torture to have his family again. 

he kinda hates it but loves it far to much to let it go.

however with his slight lucidity comes an awareness to his real body and he can feel himself slowly wither away. can feel his muscles atrophy and his body slowly dry out and starve.

the god tree keeps them all alive by draining their chakra and converting it to the energy it takes them to survive but there in lies the problem.

there are far more people on earth than there are chakra users.

a genin level chakra user is able to generate enough ckakra to keep themselves alive. a chunin one enough for three. a jounin one enough for eight.

people of madara’s powerlevels are able to provide the minimum for 20.

there are not many with madara’s chakra level and the three is draining them all dry to provide for everyone which just kills everyone slowly.

most civilians and low level ninja are already dead.

the reason the stonger ones are still alive is because their chakra regenarates fast enough to support them and because the god tree suplies them with priorety but what they’re suffering is a fate worse than those already dead. they will be drained until their body is unable to produce another drop of chakra.

madara find’s all this out after he woke himself unable to continue living in this torture of a different kind in both an emotional and physical aspect.

he is horrified and for the first time in a long while cares about the strangers his actions hurt. the ones he wanted to help, caught in his insanity.

so he starts wandering trying to find a way to stop it.

he then finds tobirama. the only other free person on the entire planes thanks to him being dead.

after madara won against tobirama and pinned him to the ground with those chakra rod thingies

(you know like that:

)

he left him there, deeming him as unimportant, and got rid of the other edo tensei-ed kage and then did the eternal tsukuyomi.

tobirama didn’t get caught in it because he’s technically dead and by the time madara awakes he has long freed himself.

So the two meet and slightly insane from the loneliness they decide to work together to stop the eternal tsukuyomi. their relationship is nowhere near friendly or sane at this moment just a mutual benefitial arangement between two enemies

they decide the only solution is time travel.

and so they find a way to send their spirit’s back to before.

the next time they open their eyes are four years apart. madara does so first with the swollen and blurry eyes of an infant as the first born of uchiha tajima.

tobirama is the second one and delights hashirama about finally gaining a sibling.

(Not sure how to go from there. I think i’ll make a part two but for now i don’t have anymore inspiration and am to tired to think anymore but i think there will be madatobi in this au.)

(edit: part 2 is here)

Part 3:

When Tobirama awoke all he felt was pain.

It was not uncommon for him to wake up in pain but it had gotten more infrequent in the last years of his life and he hadn't felt anything physical in his edo teinsei body.

So to say he was surprised might have been a slight exageration but only a slight.

He kept his breathing neutral and his eyes closed before thying to expand his senses and his chakra.

A deep piercing pain ripped throu him. the one one only feels when gone over the limit of having already been chakra exaustion.

he couldn't keep his pained cry inside and decided if where ever he was there were enemies, than they would already know now that he was awake and opened his eyes.

to open his eyes had been a mistake. he felt the hot sensation of light on his so sensitive eyes, that the seals on his face should have countered, and prompty started tearing up. an mechanism of his eyes to keep themselves protected that didn't really do anything.

then there appeared the face of a young child that he didn't know in his vision hushing him.

then there were giant hand lifting him up. he sees grey eyes and white hair, feels warmth envelop him. then his body gives out on him and the world proplty fades to blissful darkness.

The next time tobirama wakes he feels more rational. he finds out that madara's insane, what was new, plan and his seals apperently worked and he really was in the part. In the body of an infant. tobirama hates it.

the woman he saw was apperently his mother and the boy he guessed must be hashirama then.

the image of madara contoling that uchiha boy with a genjutsu to use his amaterasu to destroy the kage flashes before his eyes before he forefully surpresses it. this was not he time and he already had time to mourn them all.

at that moment his body remind's him that he is in the body of an infant and can't control his bodily fluids. gods he hates being an infant.

he spends a lot of his first year with doctors because of his bad eyes and a lot of his second and third relearing how to contoll and use his body.

during his second year back itama is born and tobirama spends the first week with hashirama at itama's side.

when he becomes four his training starts.

he is still four when the assasination of Uchiha Terumi, that he knows to have succeded, fails and his suspicion's that madara, too, has returned. He thinks it is a good thing that he can be by madara's side again soon, even if he doesn't need it as much with his family with him. but he still has the days where all he felt was the chakra of everything in one giantic globe that burned his senses. the reliev when he finally could feel something, anything other than that. how it hadn't mattered that it was madara as long as he was there. He isn't sure however. What if madara was still an insane monster, he scoffs at himself - what right has a demon to criticise a monster, or what if he hadn't returned and it was just a coincidene. He thinks if it were the former madara would be saner, now that he had his siblings. he doesn't know what to do if it were the latter.

like the last time, he focuses all his attention in being the most possible usefull tool for his father so that he won't have as big a need of hashirama. his assasination missions and other missions in the shadows begin when he's five.

when hashirama is ten and tobirama return blodied from a mission he grows a giantic tree, where the entrance to the west wing was in his anger.

their fathers attention is now more then ever on them and they don't have the time to stay at kawarama's side when he's born.

He is on his way to a mission in the and of iron, when he feels madara's chakra, weaker than he can remember him being at this time, not 10 kilometers from him.

He decides to take his chances and to see if this was really his madara, goes to where he knows madara will be in half an hour and readies his seals.

He knows that it doesn't matter if madara is weakened, he was stronger than him, even this young. and if he was wrong in his guess and this wasn't his madara he would most likely kill him or take him hostage. there was the chance that his madara would also do so but he was going to try. He also has the element of surprise on his side and experience in trapping so he's fairly sure in his succes. he prepares for defeat anyways.

In the end it's easier than he expected. madara's chakra levels were lower than expexted, so he didn't use his sensing and the seal tobirama created years ago for such occasions worked, like always, pefectly.

deciding to not reveal his identity in case he was wrong and to just go for it tobirama ask's him from a shadow - not behind, never from behind - what madara's opinion on zetsu was.

the immidiate lessening in the tension let tobirama all know what he needed to. the angry "tobirama?" that followed only proved it.

(Wow my writing get’s more like a story with every part i write lol.

No Idea when part 4 will be there. Maybe tomorrow? No Idea but for today I’m done with this au that now has a name btw: of a demon and a monster. what do you guys think?)

ok so part 2:

Madara spends the years of his live re-learning his body functions and spending time with his family.

At his second birthday he is blessed with a little brother. Izuna.

Madara has only rarely felt so relieved as he does that day, when he finds out he didn't diverge the timeline as to have his brother not born.

Then when he turns three he starts training in the ninja arts and to the happines to his family is a prodogy.

They would call it unnatural to have him develop his strengh so fast if he didn't already have the sharingan, that appered the day he first met his younger brother. Everyone in the clan was terrified when the clan heir passed out from chakra exaustion for no dissernable reason but really nobody expected a two year old to develop the sharingan.

When Madara is five they deem him strong enough to go on his first easy solo missions. He competes it with success.

Live continues on.

He goes on missions. Gets hailed as a prodogie in the Uchiha clan and when he has been six again for three months he get's his twin siblings, hinata and ryouta, back.

He swears to protect them to this time around.

Madara is still unsure whether the demon -  who is he to all him a demon, isn't he himself a monster - came back with him and whether or not it would be better or worse if he did. He also has no real way to find out.

He decides that what will happen will happen except if it would have a detrimental effect on him, his plans, or his family. Then of course he would stop it.

Madara will turn eight in a week and his youngest sister had just been born.

A week later it's his birthday and madara can't relax. he keeps terumi with him at all times.

the others find it adorable that he want's to keep his youngest sister so close to him. They don't know that she was assasinated this day in the old timeline, as he likes to call it.

When he has to leave her and go to sleep he creates a shadowclone to make it seem as if he did and races back to her room.

he find's the guards dead and two people in dark, non-descibt, cloathes standing over her crib with a bloody kunai out. for a moment he thinks he is too late.

the uchiha compound is awoken by a half formed susanuoo that burst out of the nursery. when they rush there to find out what happened they find madara standing in it holding two shinobi with it's hands and a crying baby.

the next day the uchiha celebrate the awakening of the mangekyou in the clan heir and end their allience with a minor clan. violently and bloody.

On the way back from a mission in the land of grass and already weakend he get's assaulted by an unknown shinobi and trapped before ha can retaliate. unable to move or manipulate his chakra all madara can do is think about the fact that he didn't do this mission in the old timeline, he wasn't stealthy enough for this kind of assasinations back then, and wonder whether this will be where he dies. if he failed his siblings again.

and for the first time he hopes that tobirama came back with him and that he will keep his brothers alive. as a spare heir he should have learned about how the other heir's of their enemy clan died and he knows tobirama would be strong enough, and if not then smart enough, to be able to keep them alive.

(don't worry i'm really inspired/motivated right now so part 3 will be there soon.

also i'm thinking of whether or not i should make a proper story out of this or just continue the drabbles. your opinions?)

(edit: part 3 is here)

(at least one I’ve already started outlining and maybe one after that to tie up loose ends and maybe an epiloge with the naruto generation but as you see not much)

thats why I’ve decided I’ll take a break with posting the story until i’m done with it because the konoha arc chapters are full of politics and shit and kinda interwoven so i’d feel better to only post one when i’m sure i’m done with them

bad news: i still have to edit it (anyone wanna do it for me?)
